They just mentioned that Weeds is getting help from HIS WIFE coaching. If SHUR is as bad at coaching as I think he is, we may be in for a treat next year when we actually have a guy who is helping his players.

Call that a ticky tack flag but it's a heads up play by Weeden on the very late slide, if you can coax a ref into throwing that flag by all means do it. Unless I'm not a fan of your team then that would be such BS.

Criminals in this town used to believe in things...honor, respect."I heard your dog is sick, so bought you this shovel"

I rarely agree with Fouts but I think he had a point about Denver declining that holding call on Schwartz. It simply gave us 3 points. Unless Denver is just that confident those 3pts won't mean diddly squat in about 10 minutes. I'm going with the latter.

Late and under thrown to a wide open Gordon and then stands back there like a statue and takes a sack on 3rd and 9.

Thank God that FG attempt was in Denver.

And btw, if someone doesn't shred a Brandon Stokley knee after he gutlessly launched at S Brown like he did, I'm gonna be disappointed.

Biggest problem with Weeden going down field IMO is he is not trusting where the receiver is supposed to be by the time Weeden envisions himself getting the ball there. I understand those things take some time to come around but this IS his 15th start not his 2nd. C'mon Brandon.

But when you take into account the sack yardage loss, it woulda only been a 3 or 4 yard penalty.

Then the per usual "draw play" that woulda gained two leaves you in about the same place.

Gee, I wonder if Peeks is a fan of the QB.

Didn't you beat hat horse to death 7 weeks ago? Are you afraid people will forget how you feel on the matter? Trying to up your post count? Trying to bore those who are left into submission?

You have to admire the perserverence.

You should go freshen up the playoff possibilities thread, no?

I know that you think that's some kind of "diss", but apparently being "right" and representing the "righteous anger" crowd isn't as important to me as it is to you.

Look what this team has done to you. It's left you a bitter shell of your former self. You should follow my lead and take a nice long break from them.

I know that some claim that drinking helps, but it really only makes us angrier and more irrational sounding.

Nope. It's just funny.

That looooong break is coming, sir. Til it officially does I'll honor the commitments I made and ride it out.

Mid stream and all that.

I'll try and be more cheerful though. How about that Reggie Hodges!!!! Not one punt in the 20's today!!! Thank God for the thin air in Colorado. Gave him a real boost.

At least the 'D', OL and TRich were solid today. Sheldon Brown looked good til he died, Buster Skrine made progress, coaching was exemplary in that the team was ready to play and game plan was fresh, etc., etc.

You wanna hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. Yeah, you're right, I talk too much. I also listen too much. I could be a cold-hearted cynic like you... but I don't like to hurt people's feelings. Well, you think what you want about me; I'm not changing. I like... I like me. My wife likes me. My customers like me. 'Cause I'm the real article. What you see is what you get.

Merry Christmas guys.

It will be an interesting day when Peeks accuses me of being the cold-hearted cynic.

Ah, that's a better diss! Good for you.

Man, you're sensitive today.

That's not a diss. I'd love to spend the hour or two after a Browns game not having to relive it. It'd be far healthier and enjoyable. But I can't right now. Not just because of the writing element but because of the other stuff that's involved with the site.

Hell, I'd love to (and have) not watch at all occasionally (and have my 12 yr old give me play by play texts while I sit in a fucking tree). I get that appeal and I get that's a better way to spend a day.

But I can't right now.

Soon enough, in all likelihood. But I'm seeing this through.

Don't think that doesn't mean I don't know every freaking column is basically Groundhog Day. I'm not good enough, smart enough or eloquent enough to make it read any different. I'd love to stop.

But I can't right now.

I have to finish and I will. And there is nothing else to say other than what's been said about all of it whether it's the Indians, Browns or Cavs.

I hate the movie Groundhog Day. It annoys me and I can't watch it. You know exactly how it feels to write the review of that dog of a movie week after week. You run out of ways to do it. And this regime and roster is emblematic of it. Not that other regimes and rosters weren't, but I had yet to have to write the same review 96 times. So if I have to go to ridiculous levels to make them semi-readable, then that's all I got. Here on the boards? Same thing. I hate this team as its comprised and clearly it comes through.

Do you have the freedom to have fun with it? Maybe write it as a script, with a real-life Hollywood cast? Or from the vantage point of somewhere in the stadium? Maybe an undisturbed patch of real estate, like the opposing team's end zone? Or use your ball-boy experience and narrate the game as a conversation between ballboys? Or maybe just thoughts going through a ballboy's head. Could stray to musings over ladies in the crowd/stuff people are yelling/etc. etc.?

I think maybe you have to have fun with it to have fun with it. That team just isn't fun.
